    So this is good Bendis: no wasted banter, no weird verbal ticks, and the beginning of what could be an epic storyline. Just a solid, slightly above average Marvel book, rated down slightly due to the misleading cover. Read Full Review

    This issue is one of the weaker ones so far, as it makes use of almost every one of the stylistic elements Ive grown to despise over the course of this titles wretched, misbegotten, existence. It only scores as highly as it does because McNivens clearly getting the hang of things, and because something actually happens, and its an actual Avengersey type story. Otherwise, its the usual pap.
